Loucas "Rage Monkey1" Kourtoumbellides raised to 600,000 to earn a call from Pulkit Goyal and they checked the {a-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop. On the {k-Clubs} turn, Goyal check-called for 800,000 and they checked the {5-Spades} river.

The {3-Clubs} river was checked and Goyal's {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{6-Spades} prevailed versus {k-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{7-Clubs}{5-Spades}.

Kourtoumbellides Takes Commanding Lead

Level 41 : 100,000/200,000, 0 ante

Both players checked possible ICM numbers but Loucas "Rage Monkey1" Kourtoumbellides declined as he was looking for slightly more money according to the prior table chat.

Kourtoumbellides then three-bet to 1.2 million to get called by Pulkit Goyal and bet the {q-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop to win the pot uncontested.

Most other pots went to Kourtoumbellides as well and the next big pot also headed his direction. He raised the button to 600,00 and Goyal defended. The {j-Spades}{9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} flop brought a check-call for 408,001 by Goyal and he then check-folded the {k-Spades} turn when facing a pot-sized bet worth 2,016,002.
